My Example Poem

Unfettered

I  long  for  your  return  to  me, 

       I  do; 

for  my  tranquility  needs  you, 

       you  see. 

Your  absence  leaves  me  feeling  lost.

       You  know 

you're  always  free  to  come  and  go. 

       The  cost 

of  bondage  you  would  never  bear,

       I  fear 

when  morning  comes  you  won't  be  here.
